  1. Can't fault the recommendation for the Swan Stalham. No frills no poncey stuff just good VFM. Been there twice this week. It is a different place to what it. Was 2years ago to
  2. I agree with you Andy. We have a group of talented players who have almost got there in the last 2 tournaments Criticism of the manager is silly. He has delivered more than any England manager has since Alf Ramsey. Just needs to go that one step further
  3. Winning goal celebration was pretty good as well Ryan Giggs esk
  4. Town Council has been pushing for a Pelican Crossing for quite some time now. Wouldn't have helped in this case as it happened further out of town.
  5. It didn't happen near Tesco. It was further towards Wroxham. I was on the road shortly after this incident but did not know what had happened. No emergency services were on scene when I passed and TBH I thought someone had hit a deer which is not uncommon on that road. Feel a bit bad now for not stopping to offer my limited first aid skills. Didn't see the car involved as I had turned off before the Tesco junction.
  6. Floyd I think you needed to watch more of the Germany games. It is obviously a part of their game plan and has led to them being one of the top team. They were just as cynical in the semi against France and where did that get them. Oh yeah the final. I watched all the England games and didn't see any of this sort of behaviour. Well done the girls for winning against such tactics and let's face it a hopeless referee. Let's also give some credit to the manager for trusting Georgia Stanway to stay on when she was on thin ice after the early yellow. I felt she would have been subbed at half time. Well done girls
  7. Just what he said ∆∆∆∆∆∆∆
  8. Good to see the Lionesses in the final though. Let's just hope they can go one better than the men. Then the men Go one better in the heat of the desert in November. I believe both are possible.
  9. Looking forward to Sunday. Best man wins . Or should that be.....oh it's too much, been talking with friends and man of the match, actually it's woman of the or is it person, oh ###### it's just best player. I think Alex Popp tonight. Fran Kirby last night. Millie Bright in the quarters.
  10. Guilty as charged Didn't mean to do it So it's Germany. Going to be interesting.
  11. Been a great spectacle. Lionesses seem to be growing into the tournament. No comparisons from me to the men's game but for me the standard of women's football at this level is very very good. Gone is the mistakes that defined the women's game. Let's now see who we are up against in the final.
  12. Well that was a lot less confrontational than the original post.
  13. And I must say all credit to the hirers for reporting the damage and not attempting to return and cause more
  14. Matches my experience with the above Yard. There are some good people out there
  15. Very informative post Vaughan and thank you for detailing the correct procedure. I thought that was what to do but it is good to have it confirmed by an industry insider. Like you I do hope that the case detailed by Paladin is the exception rather than the rule.
  16. Much good advice there Paul. Unfortunately the incident happened dahn Saaff so there is no escaping it. We likewise try to avoid the mayhem oop North during the busiest months.
  17. There has been a lot of talk on this thread about the holiday being ruined for the hiring family. Not much about the holiday of the owner.
  18. Surprised to hear this. It was certainly unique and a fixture in Loddon. Had a good breakfast there a week or so ago in the strange garden area across the road. Did notice competition just up the high street but did not try it. Will be interesting to see how things pan out at The Angel. That was another place that is sadly missed as a good old fashioned boozer. Although the folk who re opened it a couple of years ago did seem to have the right ideas for this day and age and it was sad to hear of it's demise.
  19. Or the obligatory picture of Hunset Mill, St Bennet's Abbey, Pye's Mill, Oulton Broad An Owl A Heron, Bitten Otter Marsh Harrier Sunset, Sunrise,Big Sky, Peaceful waters,Threatening Sky or indeed anything that someone takes a photo of and puts on the net for the benefit of those not fortunate enough to live here . Some folks miss the Broads when not here and appreciate seeing photos to remind them of the beauty and otherwise of this place
  20. Totally agree. My biggest bugbear is traffic lights going in on Friday and no work started until At least Monday. Bit different to other parts of the country where roadworks are carried out at night. Bit frustrating for us night workers but the best way to do it.
  21. Yes Wales With hills endless rain but for South Wales the second highest tidal range in the world. 13.5 m IIRC. Big plans for harnessing that power in Swansea Bay. 7 miles of stunning coast. Barrier across the bay with turbines installed so flood tide powers the turbines slowly on the flood. And then massive kinetic energy available when the tide is low. Just like hydro Power available when the grid is low . Smashing idea. But of course we have to go for environmental disastrous Lithium powered cars instead. Lithium mining poisons an area in China The size of Wales every year. But don't worry about that when you are driving your evvirome ally friendly Tesla or Prius. It doesn't effect us. Rant over
  22. I had solar panels fitted to my current boat around 17 years ago and while not cheap IIRC around £1000 then have been brilliant. They even charged in the Wet Shed as they run on light not direct sunlight
  23. I would imagine in the era Griff was in the Andrew toilets flushed directly overboard so which type of loo roll did not matter much. Only problem was that if the flapper valve (non return valve) was not functioning correctly in bad weather then the old Elvis song Return to Sender became a bit too true for comfort
